    if the size doesnt matter this is no doubt better product then any other mini dv camcorder in low midle class… as picture can esly match any mini dv, or even better… soo, if weight (size is quite compact) doesnt metter go for it, as it has superior zoom…!!!

    Iown 330, but there cant be diff.

    Terribly grainy even in well lighted room. This produc shows how SONY sells products by it’s name and not quality. Image quality shot from camera is unacceptable and LCD display is equally horrible. The absolute worst camcorder anyone can buy. Remember, buy product only on it’s merrit and not brand. SONY lost my loyalty forever.

    After owning a Sony 8mm camcorder for 10 years without any problem, I thought I would get this model. BIG mistake.

    These other reviewers are right. The indoor quality is terrible. Much too grainy. Do yourself a favor and look around a little more. Don’t buy this.

    This is not a bad camera but I am having trouble with it not wanting to record or playback tapes. I have tried different tapes thinking maybe it was the tape but no matter what I do, it won’t work. Took it to the place I got it, they had to send it away, which took forever, and all they done was use a headcleaner on it. They said they could not find out any problem with it. I brought it home and it started doing the same thing again and I bought a Maxell head cleaner and used it several times on it and it worked okay for awhile. Now it is back to doing the same thing again on not recording or playing back a tape. Do not know what the problem is. It just could be that I got a “lemon.” I have contacted Sony but have never heard anything back.
